The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2531 The Situation in Russia One

The flames of the First World War were finally extinguished. Whether it was the victorious Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, or the defeated Britain and France, they were all repairing the wounds of the war. The casualties and tragic memories of the war left scars on the people. So deep that even in victorious countries, the people hate war very much. However, in the east of Europe, Russia, which has been torn apart, is still full of gunpowder. All forces are fighting to the death for the power of the country. The cruelty of the battle is no less than that of the Eastern Front. It's even more terrifying.

But now, as the two years of the Russian Civil War gradually came to an end, the situation of the war has gradually become clear, and the Red Army led by the Bolsheviks has gradually crushed its opponents militarily! The once mighty White Army was divided into two major parts, part of which was led by Korninov and Denikin, and was forced to retreat in the direction of Ukraine, but here is now the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The army and the accompanying people can only wander in the border area. They could not go west into what is now the Austro-Hungarian Empire, nor could they go east, because that was the direction of the enemy. Under the leadership of Budyonny, the Red Army began to gradually compress the White Army. And tried to encircle and annihilate it near the current armistice line, but it was not implemented for the time being because it was worried that it would be too stimulating to the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

As for the other part, the White Army commanded by Kolchak is retreating towards Asia, but unlike in history, this plane Kolchak absolutely cannot retreat towards the Far East, because there are Japanese , So after crossing the Ural Mountains, Kolchak's troops began to withdraw to Central Asia. And trying to gain a firm foothold here and continue to confront the Red Army.

Relatively speaking, the army commanded by Korninov and Denikin is in the worst situation, because they have no way to retreat. To the east is the Red Army who is always trying to kill themselves, and to the west is the former enemy , now the Allied Powers, whose status is unclear between the enemy and us, their territory is getting smaller and smaller, and their supplies are getting less and less. If they don't make a choice, it is only a matter of time before they are wiped out!

"We have to make a decision, Denikin, there are only two options now, the first is to send a request to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, so that we can enter Ukraine with troops and personnel, the second is to be defeated by the opponent Kill them, they will kill all of us without hesitation!" Korninov said anxiously. Seeing Denikin's unkind face, he changed his tone again: "At least we have to buy some food from the Austro-Hungarian Empire and use the gold in our hands."

Unlike in history, Kolchak, who was evacuating eastward, did not bring all the gold with him. In history, more than 300 tons of the total weight of 500 tons of gold fell into the hands of Denikin and others. In addition, there are a large number of palace collections. If you are willing to cash them out, at least eating and drinking will not be a problem.

"Then contact the Austro-Hungarian Empire first, and hope that they will provide us with some food and necessary medicines out of humanitarian principles," Denikin said.

"And what about the future?" Korninov asked further. "It's not that Budyonny is incapable of destroying me, they are just afraid to stop on the other side of the front.

If he confirmed that the Austro-Hungarian Empire would not overreact, we might not see the sun of the next day. It is impossible for us to continue like this. We have more than 100,000 troops and more civilians who follow us, and the daily consumption is an astronomical figure. I know that you hate the Allies, but now, at least you are responsible for the lives of hundreds of thousands of people who follow you. "

"Just yesterday, more than 300 people died of illness and starvation. In addition, there are more than 800 people who lost on the front line. They are all people who followed us in the east and west. Some of them were my comrades in the Third Cavalry Army. , and your brother from the Eighth Army. The war is over, whether it is the war against the Allies or the Russian Civil War, we have done our best, and now it is time to consider the issue of keeping more people alive." Korninov The order in the words was a little disordered, he just kept talking.

"Unless we surrender to Austria-Hungary, Austria-Hungary will not accept us. But surrendering to Austria-Hungary means betraying our motherland and nation. The Bolsheviks are our enemies, but Austria-Hungary is also Our enemy." Denikin said through gritted teeth.

Denikin is a very patriotic person. Even in exile in France in history, he always cared about his motherland, even if the regime in this country was his enemy! When the Second World War broke out, he advocated that the Russians in exile and the country reconcile to fight against the terrorist attack. Even in the textbooks of the Soviet Union in the 1980s, Denikin began to be called a patriotic general. Therefore, as the second in command of this army, he firmly opposed Korninov's idea of ​​seeking refuge in the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Compared with Denikin, who served as the commander of the group army at the beginning of the war and held high expectations in the army, Korninov was inferior in military affairs. When the Tsarist Russian government collapsed, although he was also the commander of the group army , but it is more of a promotion of the line of fire, the foundation is not solid, the only political advantage is that he is the military commander appointed by the bourgeois interim government, but now, the interim government is gone, even though he is now the number one in name, Denikin's support must be obtained on some key issues before they can be implemented. After all, in troubled times, whoever owns the gun is the master!

Korninov is ready to consider surrendering to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but obviously, Denikin is still very resistant to this. This is the third time he has discussed this matter with Denikin, but there is still no result!

"Then what do you say? You can die for your own ideals, but you must not bring everyone to die with you! If we don't act again, maybe what is waiting for you and me is a bullet. This bullet is not It came from our enemies, but from our own people! Now the hearts of the people have been scattered, and we are on the verge of an explosion! If it were not for the suppression of the enemy forces in the west, we would be in chaos now, and if the Austro-Hungarian Empire showed With a little kindness, then I can tell you very clearly that our army will be torn apart in an instant, and then scramble to fall into the arms of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, even though we were enemies before!" Korninov couldn't help raising his voice Voice, say it out loud!
